Wilde Fyre and The Fyre Maiden

“Oh, you’re back! Allias, I was so worried. Where have you been?” Thaddeus embraced his son in his arms

Gaven just looked down at Childe and tut tutted, “the forest I’m guessing?” she said as she carefully pulled a singed leaf out of Childe’s hair. Both Maia and Childe knew they were meant to leave the room. So they did.

“Who do you think Wilde Fyre is?” Maia wondered

“Hello, it’s me!” Childe thought it was obvious; she was the girl with the hair of fire.

“How do you know? Oh, wait she said ‘the girl with the hair of fire’ didn’t she? Yes, that’s you.” She said pointing to Childe’s hair.

“Do you think Wilde Fyre is the Fyre Maiden, I mean it could be?” Childe was really hoping her friend would say yes, she liked the thought of having a real name, if she was the Fyre Maiden and the name Wilde was nice, ‘yes,’ she thought ‘it would be nice.’

“Yeah, that could make sense.”

“Ok, because I think I’m the Fyre Maiden, I think I’m Wilde Fyre!”

“What?” Maia almost screamed

“Shhhh”

“Why?”

And the story Childe had been holding in since the incidence in the princess’s room was revealed and it took a weight off her small shoulders.

“Ever since you said I was getting bored of you, I had a suspicion!” Maia shouted in a whisper that made her sound like an overexcited mouse.
